Back to SearchNIPISSING & PARRY SOUND, ON - At 3 p.m., the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit (Health Unit) is launching their COVID-19 dashboard named the COVID-19 Status Report. The COVID-19 Status Report is a one-stop location for the most up-to-date COVID-19 data for the Health Unit’s district. Data includes:
- COVID-19 cases overview including variant of concern information;
- Cases by age and exposure;
- Number of confirmed cases by reported date;
- Number of confirmed cases by month;
- Outbreaks in child care centres, long-term care homes/retirement homes and schools;
- COVID-19 testing numbers;
- Vaccination rates and numbers.
The COVID-19 Status Report is available at www.myhealthunit.ca/COVID-19, with a walk through of the dashboard available on our YouTube channel. The dashboard is updated Monday to Friday at 3 p.m. and Monday mornings at 10 a.m.
“The COVID-19 Status Report is an interactive way for district data to be showcased,” explains Dr. Jim Chirico, Medical Officer of Health. “As our province has entered the third wave, improving the way our local numbers are presented is important now more than ever.”
In an effort to maintain the privacy of individuals who test positive for COVID-19 in many of the small municipalities, the COVID-19 Status Report will only distinguish the location of cases as Nipissing District, Parry Sound District or the Health Unit as a whole.
